unknown pst effect: 0xc5-0xc8, 0xca

[Avenger]

Yeah, they absolutely don't change anything.

0xca checks if the affected creature is still alive, but that's all. It does the same both cases.

The rest doesn't even bother with that.

 

I will use this thread to list other unimportant pst opcodes as i checked them

This isn't exactly unimportant:

 

opcodes 188-191 are exactly the same code (this is probably known).

The mode field is a special bitfield with at least 2 double bits (2 bits designate a mode).

 

0x1000 - stick to target

 

mask 0x30000

0x10000 - background animation (animation is always behind actors)

0x20000 - animation is drawn over actors

0x30000 - twin animation (one before one behind)

 

mask 0x300000

0x0 - normal drawn

0x100000 - (per surface transparency) the transparency value is in the rgb field, with an additional fading speed in dice size

0x200000 - this is a weird effect because the rgb field is used both as transparency and as color tint

0x300000 - (per pixel transparency) blend

 

there are a few other bits i have not discerned yet

Added, thanks.
